Touch Someone

As the break of dawn brings forth a new day,
Kneel down and touch someone when you pray.
As you arise to travel to work in your car;
Touch someone in your thoughts whether near or far.
And as you have traveled that distant mile;
Touch someone through laughter, tears or a smile.
Touch someone with a hug, kiss or kind word,
As you enjoy the sunshine or singing of a bird.
Touch someone's finances; touch their food on the table,
Don't think you can't for with Jesus you are able.
Don't be selfish or stingy with the blessings God gives.
Reach out and touch someone and you shall live;
A very long, healthy and prosperous life;
You will conquer the enemy and overcome strife.
Children of God reach out and touch someone;
And when you arrive home, He will say servant well done.

What the world needs now is LOVE sweet LOVE. And we all need to be touched in many areas of our life like you touched me by your words of encouragement. Thanks
